The original HMS Dreadnought, called the
Torrington, was launched in 1654, and its name
was later changed to Dreadnought (fear nothing).
This Dreadnought was launched in 1906, and
was the first of a larger and more powerful class
of battleships.

This commemorative teaspoon, highlighted with
blue and white enamel, is in superb, original
condition, with no faults.

I do not know what the D.S and A.S represent.
